"A chap called Heindorf". Ray Heindorf, "chap" was one of the great filmmusic conductors, and the sound he got from the recording engineers on the Warner stage is unbelievably great. As to the Varese - I hate to say it, for obvious reasons, but I find it just awful. Not a patch on Mr. Heindorf, I'm afraid.

While the subject of STREETCAR is on the table, Have any of you heard the STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE Ballet that was released a number of years ago Conducted by the Late Miltion Rosenstock??? You can go to the official Alex North site and hear a audio sample: http://alexnorthmusic.com/streetcar.html It's not soundtrack, but it's a damn fine work by North turning his film score into a really good concert work.

So the Capitol 10", later reissued on an Angel LP, consists of actual film tracks The Capitol Records cover identifies itself as "Music from the original sound track of the motion picture."

Cheers Even if it weren't the OST, which it is, Heindorf's credentials as one of Hollwood's greatest orchestrators, and a good composer in his own right would ensure it was a fine recording. I have both the OST and the Goldsmith. I find them both very fine. The LSO suite with Eric Stern is ... okay.
